I'm guessing that the wpa_supplicant file isn't specific to the device but to the OS. I did some searching around and found this XDA discussion where they got it working on a Xoom with Honeycomb: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1033314

AND this discussion where someone used the same file to get it working on an Acer A500 with Honeycomb: http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-1069569.html

Sooo... my 7+ is on its way but I don't have it to test it. Can someone grab the wpa_supplicant file from the Xoom discussion and try it out?

<crossing fingers!>
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] garyd9:
I'll save you the trouble: The wpa_supplicant on the 7+ is linked with atheros specific driver extensions. Unless the xoom uses the same AR6003 chip, it won't work.

Oh, the xoom doesn't use the AR6003 chip... it appears to be using a broadcom chip.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] TheOccult:
Dammit! Ok, thanks garyd!

I was able to get tethering working using Android Wifi Tether on my HTC Droid Incredible. I had to open Wifi Tether and go to Settings>Change Setup-Method and enabled Softap (master) and was able to get my GTab7+ to recognize the phone this way.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] zetajunkie:
WIFI tether works on Evo4G (deck's 1.3 stable, tiamat 3.3.7 kernel) with wpa-tsk on P6210 (rooted stock).

I got it to tether the 7+ just fine using "Wifi Tether" but no dice when trying anything else. Works fine except my commute takes me through several deadzones.

S.O.S. I have a Galaxy 7 plus rooted, I try the ad-hoc wifi switcher (ZT-180 adhoc) And yes it was stupid! now the wifi won't come on is there hope? Would replacing the wpa_supplicant fix it? And what can I do besides return it again to Best Buy. And losing all my data again :(

Thanks for any help :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kzoodroid:
Not sure what your problem is as I'm not familar with ad-hoc wifi switcher or what it does. I am assuming it borked your GTAB7+ somehow. You could do a factory restore (settings>privacy>factory data reset). This will restore your GTab7+ to the way it was when you first got it. All data will be gone as well as root. Both of which are easy to replace as long as you've backed up your apps and data. I use Titanium Backup and GMail saves all my contact info and syncs it with my devices. I also allow Google to backup my device so all my apps just automatically redownload when I do a restore so I really don't need to do much.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] dukecycle:
Thanks, I like to give more info. before I try that. This is my 2nd time down this road. last time the wifi stopped working I panic used the hold down power & up volume and used the wipe data/factory rest. All my data was gone, no big deal but lost the root explorer. wifi still won't come back on. Took it to the geek squid @ best buy. they just gave me a new one. Is there anything I should try before the factory data reset? And if I do try the factory data reset & the wifi still won't come on is there hope? :)

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Brightxda:
I think the "ad-hoc wifi switcher" might have replaced the wpa_supplicant file of the GT7P which caused the wifi fails satrt. The hard reset won't change it back. You may use the Rpoot Explorer to put back the original wpa_supplicant of the GT7P and make sure the permissions look like:

And still no wifi. in setting under wireless and networks it say wifi Turning on... than later says Error. sorry I'm losing all hope :(

Thanks for your time

Is there anything more to try?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Brightxda:
I had exactly the same situation as yours when I replaced the wpa_supplicant for enable adhoc. The wifi keeps turning on and then error. after put back the original wpa_supplicant and setup the proper permissions, it was back to normal. I think you may check to make sure the original wpa_supplicant is there (it should be around 520kb, and the old one might be only around 200-300kb), and the permissions are set properly.You need re-root to perform above procedure if you hard reset it.

You may use Odin3 to dump the stock ROMs back. read this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1367478
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] dukecycle:
it's the right wpa_supplicant file & the permissions are right. when you say hard reset you talk reboot system, or wipe data/factory reset?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Brightxda:
The Hard reset is wipe data/factory reset.

If it still fail, you may use Odin3 to dump the stock ROMs back. This will roll back to the original manufactory state.

What version of the Android Wifi Tether are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kzoodroid:
I'm using version 3.1-beta7

http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] TheOccult:
Thanks. I discovered that the Android Tether are device specific and that choosing the different phones by choosing

Menu > Settings > Change Device-Profile

changes the available option under Change Setup-Method. In other words, some phone models can support the SoftAP feature and others can't. My Samsung Captivate, unfortunately can't.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kzoodroid:
My phone isn't listed in Device-Profile so I used Auto instead and it works.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] TheOccult:
Yeah, my Capi was set to Auto also. Tab could see it but could never finally obtain the IP address. A friend's Motorola Atrix was set to auto but didn't have the option.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Brightxda:
The wpa_supplicant which supports ad-hoc wifi for GT7p is not available yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] lanwarrior:
Not to bring an "old" thread, but NOT having Ad-Hoc capabilities makes some great application such as Air Display non-functioning when you don't have Wifi Network.

Air Display (Market) make your tablet as a SECONDARY monitor for your Mac or Windows machine. It works through Wi-Fi connection and having the app installed on your Android and PC/MAC.

I tested and it works great, fast too, very useful in software develompent environment when you need multiple monitors. If there is no Wi-Fi network, Air Display supports Ad-Hoc network which of course does NOT work on Galaxy Tab 7+.

Probably have something to do with the stupid "Wi-Fi Direct" features that comes with the tablet.

Gary any update on tethering the p6210 galaxy plus to an ad-hoc signal...thx
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Nicolfa:
Found that the suppicant files listed for the galaxy tab 10.1 are the same files used by the xoom version. Was looking to get internet off my n900 [which does ad-hoc] only. Looking forward to when ad-hoc will be available for the galaxy tab 7.0 plus.

As to recovering from the error wifi after applying the supplicant files, i found coping the origional in place and issueing a chown system.wifi /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf would work on reboot.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelboosman47:
Hi there,

I've been getting some notifications from my HTC Desire phone about an OTA update "2.33.161.6(6.14 MB) - Android 2.2".

I downloaded the update, but sadly it doesn't install. The phone reboots, starts to show a progress bar, and then I get an exclamation point icon. Pressing home takes me to a ClockworkModRecovery screen with this showing :

Finding update package

Opening update package

Verifying update package

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

Is there a solution for this?? I've tried many things (like enabling and disabling verification check in CWM)

I have a rooted HTC Desire GSM (stock rom) and I think it's branded (Vodafone). I have the CWM with S-Off.

I want to try to install it from recovery as an update.zip, but therefor I need to know where android saves OTA updates?

Anyone knows the full path to the directory and knows what the file is called??

Thanx!!!

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tcp.Az:
You need to unlock your bootloader to flash new kernels. It says so in the instructions. You can tell yours is locked by having a look at VER= right before the error. When you unlock your bootloader, that R turns into r. You won't be able to flash any kernel without unlocking it first, which will void your warranty.

How to unlock the bootloader:

I already had similar problem and discovered that my issue was caused by build.prop file. When I installed a rom from other device the phone was not starting because build.prop was not correct.

I supose you had usb-debuging active so while stuck at the logo try to use a program like "ADB mask controller" to check your build.prop. If you see minmi there then it's incorrect, for X10 mini it should be robyn. Replace the file

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] tcp.Az:
Flash Mode normally works, you press the back button and insert the cable without letting go of the button. But to this when the applications requests it because the phone doesn't stay in flash mode unless there is activity.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] realmccoy813:
I would definitely take it in. Especially if it was nothing out of the ordinary that you did. If so they should be able to fix it either way you should have another phone worst case they'll have to send back to manufacturer who has the software for that type of issue.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] arpu26:
It was. I tried to flash kernel and custom rom.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Ticklefish:
SE won't refuse to fix it, unless they're having a bad day. The worst thing they'd do is charge you to repair the phone if you've taken it out of warranty. I've no idea how much but it's going to be less than buying a new handset.

The only way to fix a properly bricked phone (one that just doesn't do anything at all) is to give it to someone who knows their electronics. Sucks, I know, but I don't think you have much choice.

Next time, move slower and more carefully when modding your phone.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snmjm:
I'm considering a flyer to replace my galaxy tab (the original gt-p1000 with 16GB storage).

The galaxy tab has basically the following layout :

2 GB approb -> mounted as /data

13 GB approx -> mounted as /sdcard

& the rest as the various /dbdata /system & cache partitions.

How are the partitions set up in the case of the flyer ? Is it similar to the tab ?

I'm ok with the layout of the tab although I would've preferred the sizes of the /data & /sdcard to be flipped so that I didn't need to bother about ever running out of space when installing large games & apps.

Also, once you upgrade to honeycomb, is the partition layout changed ? I've read that honeycomb changed the way you could access the internal storage. I'll be accessing the tab mostly in windows which had mtp drivers built in.

Anyone used the flyer with linux ? Any problems / points to consider ?

Thanks

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gaugerer:
Do you get annoyed and frustrated when you see someone on the Web offering a service such the web based Sky TV or on line stock market trading but discover that it only works on the iPhone or iPad? The Android hardware is as good as, and perhaps even better, so the problem with lack of applications must be due to software. I suspect the bloatware has a lot to do with it and the different phone/tablet software. Perhaps with ICS things will change, but I think Google needs to get involved to solve this problem. Else we will continue to lack application support for Android hardware. There seems to be iPhone/iPad applications being offered by everyone on the Web, but very few Android.

Dear Gaugerer,

Totally agreed... We have better hardware but low quality or lack of similar apps compared to ios... Hope google can change it with ics...

Now we know that the full metal back plate is the sole reason of weak WiFi and bad GPS performance.

ASUS admited it, and we can read as well explanation from AnandTech:

http://www.anandtech.com/show/5285/asus-eee-pad-transformer-prime-gps-issue-explained

So, what's the chance of ASUS redesigned the back plate?

Probably just patching the antenna area with plastic, that should be enough.

That would be awesome!

People used to laugh at Samsung because they always put plastic back cover. Now, suddenly we all need plastic one!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Sokonomi:
imho we still know nothing at all about the effects of the backplate.

Asus may well just be saying that because they got sick of the spam.

Until someone picks it apart and actually tries GPS without the backplate,

its all just merely a bunch of speculations.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
It's amazing how dumb the engineers were know this one..... Not only the aluminum backplate but the placement and execution of the speaker is horrible not big enough holes to let the sound out well. Also just realized with Bluetooth on my speedtests are basically cut in half. Hopefully they fired the entire engineering department and are designing a 2nd Gen Prime right now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
Exactly. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kristovaher:
Yeah we do know the effects of the back plate. There's a reason why smart engineers do not shield GPS with aluminium. I am fairly certain that some Asus people got in trouble for such a mistake.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] setite:
Can we get an aftermarket plastic backplate? I'd buy one in a second. This device would go from zero to hero in my book.

EDIT: Trouble? Dude there are a bunch of former ASUS engineers LFW.

Those of you who call it speculation. Make a pouch out of some aluminum foil, press speedtest and put the tablet into the pouch and close it. Voila, NO WIFI/GPS/BT. It's like magic.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shinzz:
Very slim to none at least in the near future. Not only do they have to redesign the backplate, but they need to re-position the GPS, Bluetooth, and Wifi. Once they have that set, Asus needs to rework their production line (which isn't cheap) to be configured to the new changes.

Once everything is figured out.. it'll be re-branded/tagged as TF 201A or something to that degree.
